Thermal water and mud


The beneficial properties of sulphurous salsobromoiodic water and thermal mud of Terme di Sirmione

The whole offer of Terme di Sirmione starts with thermal water: a natural resource, unique of its kind and beneficial for health and well-being. Our thermal water combines the properties of sulphurous water and salsobromoiodic water, conferring therapeutic actions that involve the whole organism.

THERMAL SULPHUROUS SALSOBROMOIODIC WATER OF TERME DI SIRMIONE

THE BIRTH OF SIRMIONE THERMAL WATER

A drop of water at 69 degrees centigrade: this is the temperature of the precious natural element at the base of the beneficial properties of Terme di Sirmione. Its origin dates back to about 10.000 years ago: raining from the sky into the Monte Baldo impluvium basin at an altitude of over 800 meters, the water infiltrated deep into the rock, enriching itself with minerals and increasing its temperature, to then gush out at the Boiola spring located at the bottom of Lake Garda, after a 20-year long journey.
From the thermal source, water is then channeled into a complex system of stainless insulated steel pipes, which maintain its chemical-physical characteristics unaltered. The drop of waters' journey has come to the end, but the thermal water cycle is inexhaustible: today's rain contributes to feeding the deep circuit that has lasted for millennia.


COMPOSITION OF SIRMIONE THERMAL WATER

The water of Terme di Sirmione is classified as mineral water, bacteriologically pure and hyperthermal, because it flows at a temperature of 69 °. Based on its chemical-physical characteristics, the water of Terme di Sirmione is identified as sulphurous salsobromoiodic. In fact, it contains a significant amount of sulfur, in the form of hydrogen sulphide, sodium, bromine and iodine. 
The trace elements present, including zinc, manganese and selenium, they act as catalysts. 
Furthermore, the thermal water of Sirmione is bacteriologically pure.

THE BENEFITS OF THE SIRMIONE THERMAL WATER

THE THERMAL MUD OF TERME DI SIRMIONE


HOW THE THERMAL MUD OF TERME DI SIRMIONE IS BORN

Thermal mud is a natural product that comes from the mixture of sulphurous salsobromoiodic water with clay. Thanks to a long maturation in special tanks in the open air, this blend acquires the properties of thermal water and develops its particular microbiological composition.
 

THE COMPOSITION OF THE THERMAL MUD OF TERME DI SIRMIONE

The most recent studies on the thermal mud of Terme di Sirmione have confirmed a significant presence of trace elements such as calcium and strontium, a fundamental quality in cases of osteoporosis and difficult to find in other types of thermal mud. In addition, the molecular analyzes on mature thermal muds confirmed the presence of a particular prokaryote, called Cyanobacterium Aponimum, and of a specific microbiota characterized by the prevalence of sulfur bacteria capable of producing anti-inflammatory lipids. This chemical and microbiological composition contributes to making the muds of Terme di Sirmione particularly effective.

THE BENEFITS OF THERMAL MUD OF TERME DI SIRMIONE

Thanks to the high thermal capacity and the chemical and microbiological composition, the mud of Terme di Sirmione has multiple benefits:
  • anti-inflammatory action
  • helps fix calcium in the bones
  • slows down cartilage degeneration
  • preventive and therapeutic action of relapses
  • analgesic action
  • antiseptic action
  • stimulating action of the immune system
  • moisturizing action
  • improved circulation
The thermal mud of Terme di Sirmione is therefore effective for healing, as an additional therapy osteoarticular, rheumatological and osteoporosis diseases. Applied at lower temperatures, it is effective in combating dermatological diseases, in particular psoriasis, and is used in the treatment of cellulite and in beauty treatments. METHOD TERME DI SIRMIONE available at Terme Virgilio, Aquaria Thermal SPA e gli hotel di Terme di Sirmione.
